Etymology of HURRICANOES

The word "hurricane" comes from the Spanish word "huracán", which was derived from the Taíno word "hurakán". The Taíno people were indigenous inhabitants of the Caribbean islands who experienced these powerful storms. The word "hurakán" referred to their god of evil, destruction, and chaos, associated with powerful winds and storms. This term was adopted by Spanish explorers and later entered the English language as "hurricane". The plural form, "hurricanes", is simply derived from the singular noun. "Hurricanoes" might be a less common variation of the plural form.
